Hello there,
Does ‘pressure’ count as well, or is there a slight difference in sound?
Thanks!
Ronel.
Oh, good thinking, how did I miss that?? Adding it to the list now. Thanks!

Words like ‘mission” are here, the grapheme is ssi not just ss: https://www.spelfabet.com.au/spelling-lists/sorted-by-sound/sh/ssi-as-in-passion/
I think it is ssu that make the sh sound. Not the ss alone.
Really? So you think the final /ue/ sound is represented by letter e in this word? I can’t think of any words with that spelling, so I don’t agree. Alison
